Robin and his cheerfulness will be missed. He provided love, support and assistance with our mom. The family dog, Eddie, misses sitting with him and the walks they took at the park.

with a smile for anyone passing by.
he laughed and joked and
shared his dreams,
with all who crossed his path it
seems.

"I only knew Robin for a short time, he had a kind, approachable demeanor that he carried with him - you couldn't help but like him. John Yavornitzky, Scottsdale, AZ."

I remember as kids, spending so much time with Robin on our many visits to Columbus. It was good to see him just the other summer in Iola and catch up. RIP cousin.
